fforton's Evil Omen.

One OF the most Interesting OF the Sena-
torial contests now going on is that in
New York. Senator Millers term expires
with the present. Congress. He is, how
ever, candidate for reelection. There
are two other prominent candidates. VIZ:
Levi p. Morton and Representa- His
cock. Moron 10 a millionaire. and bOih
Miller and Hiscock are very rich men.
Morton was a prominent candidate for
Senator two years ago, when Mr.. Eyarts
was elected. The story is that the rui al
members were old that if they voted for
Morton they would be looked upon as
bribe-taSers, but that they could get
verv handsome sun for voting for Eyarts
and at the same time preserve their TeDu-
tatlous as honest men. Whether or not
the argument made converts for Eysrts
IS unknown, but 1t is certain taat he
carried of the prize.
1t is claimed that pretty much the sam e
sorto tactics are being used against Nor
ton in the present contest. 1t is known,
OF course, that he has many more mill
lions than be can use, and that be would
gladly part with some Of bis wealth for
the Senatorship if he could do so In an
honest and honorable way. There is
chance, o. course, that he wouldn't bother
him ELF much about the way il success
we're assured.
tits stated that Miller's and Hiscock's
friends have very nice sum ready to
distribute Al the right moment. In the
meantime they are making great cutlery
about the Morton Doodle. In fact, so per-
sistent are they in their statements that
Morton is relying upon money 10 get the
position that rural members are almost
afraid to be seen talking with the friends
ii Morton.
The queerest story of all, however, that
is being circulated to injure him is that
the fire which consumed Morton's old
tailor shop In Hanover, \. II. last Tues
day, was an evil omen which indicates
tDat nis IF rts to secure the Senatorship
Will end in smoke, as it were. 1t is diff
cult to see what this little tailor shop Las
10 do with the Senatorial contest in New
York. 1t may be true that Morton once
handled the goose, but ii he were an hon
est tailor it is not to his discredit that be
did so. 1t is probable that he doesn't
deny that al one time be furnished his
nelghbOrs with good suits OF clothes. He
is fined looking and cultivated man.

lent reputation, and it is probable that if

from humble beginnings to very high

Better vessels Needed.

The government has some old tubs in
the revenue marine service. Some OF the
vessels are good ones, and are doubtless
well suited for the purpose for which they
were built; but the government would
hardly like to make known the number
that is actually unseawerthy and which
cannot outsail a good sailing vessel thai
has the advantage of a stiff breeze.
The revenue cutter that hovers about
the Mississippi sound with the purpose Of
keeping a good Lookout for smugglers mad
a little experience the other day which
plainly showed that If the government
wants to catch smugglers it will have TO
build few cutters that can make better
time. Toe name OF the cutter in question
is the Seward, and it Is alleged that she
has fine, capable commander and good
crew. The Seward sighted vessel which
had all the marks OF q smuggler, and
started in pursuit. The strange vessel
paid no attention TO the shot fired acros s
her bows, and made no response tc the
Stewards request for information about
herself and cargo. She simply ran away,
and she ran so much faster than the old
government tub that the pursuit was not
even exciting. A train at the time was
passing over the Louisville and Nashville
railroad, which skirts the sound,
and witnessed the snail-like progress of
the Seward, in comparison with that OF
the smuggler, with feelings that did not
indicate much respect for at least one OF
the vessels In the revenue marine SER
vice.
The fact is that this service contains
many able and brave men, and they de-
serve better fate than to be compelled
to render service in such vessels as some
OF the revenue vessels are. II the vessels
were as good as the officers and crews
this government would have a revenue
marine service that could not be sur.
passed.

The Car-Heating Problem

Every time there is a railroad disaster,
in which number OF people is burned to
death, the question is asked in every part
Of the country why the railroads don't de-
wise less dangerous method OF heating
cars. The question is based upon the sup
position that the railroads have made no
effort to find a substitute for stoves. As
matter OF fact, the heating OF railroad cars
satisfactorily, and without danger to pas
sengers in case OF accident, is a problem
that railroad men and inventors have
worked at for years, but which has not
yet been successfully solved.
1t is said that at least five thousand
devices have been suggested to accom-
pIish the object desired. not one OF which
mas beeu found to be what is wanted.
The average man who discusses the sub
ject Of heating railway cars wants to
know why steam isn't used. Well. it
isn't used for several reasons, the ehiefof
which is that no engine now built can
supply the steam needed for heating pur-
poses, and at the same time pull
heavy passenger train. Another is that
cars are picked up all along the
many of which cars are seepers,
must have heat from some source
while waiting for the train. OF course
there might be stationary engines in the
depots, but a moments consideration
will show the impracticability of having
stationary engines at all depots where cars
are required to wait for coming trains,
The experiment OF heating cars by fur
naces placed underneath them has proved
to be unsuccessful, as has. also, the ex.
pertinent of wholly encasing the stoves in
a heavy iron covering. A collision that
knocks a car to pieces breaks the iron
case.
Hundreds OF curious and useful things
are all the time being invented, but the
way Of heating cars that is without dam
ger, wnen they are overturned or smashed,
is yet to be discovered. The man who
discovers 1t will have also discovered a
quick way to wealth.

The Republican bosses in the State OF
Maine are, 1t is said, running the party
in the interest of the grog shops, while
making all the while sham professions of
devotion TO Prohibition, la consequence
Of detects in the law many low grog
shops linger in the larger towns and
cities. These are not only nuisances to
the people, but a great hIndrance to the
cause OF prohibition. The Prohibitonists
claim that for more than twenty years
they have been voting the Republican
ticket in the vain hope OF
crushing out the liquor traffic,
and their petitions to every Legislature,
praying for amendments TO the law, with
this end in view, have been treated uni
formly with contempt or positive refusal.
Therank and file OF the Republican party
In Maine is made no of temperance men
and Prohlbitionists, but the bosses, the
men who run the party, dominate them.

proper to form third party" Affairs
